I'm making no such presumption. It will take bold actions, but this isn't a bold action, this is a WRONG action, it creates a situation where for 2 generations any attempt to eliminate taxes would be doomed to failure.

Actually we got all Bush's tax cuts through, at the level he targeted, not at the level he initially proposed but that's because he's smart enough to overshoot his target and let the Dems pull the shot down accurate. Check his speeches about 2 months before the tax cut proposals and compare them to what was acually passed.

Bottomline I'm convinced this idea would have exactly the opposite effect. There's no way anybody could get away with eliminating or even reducing taxes when 12% of the population is having its ego boosted by how much the rest of us are paying. When our tax burden becomes tied to our guilt for slavery it can't go anywhere but up.

This would be true if you're taxes are getting raised to pay for it.

You're still operating through the emotion of jealousy that the Democratics have exploited so well, getting people to believe that tax cuts for other people are bad for them.

This is simply not true. It's the lie the left loves to use to manipulate people, don't fall for it.
